== Notes ==
The above sample:
* exception_id: `W4mv6QpAMEYAAGx8920AAACG `
* POST request to /w/api.php
* Domain: en.wikibooks.org
* HTTP referer: <https://en.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Special:CreateAccount&returnto=Main+Page>
It seems to be like this warning is a false negative, given that a master connection during a POST request would normally be acceptable.
Also, it seems this error was previously reported in June 2017 and seemingly fixed:
